<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Poland''' is a nice and welcoming country in [[Eastern Europe]] according to the UN statistics division (and to many western europeans) even though most of Polish and Eastern European people tend to refer to it as "Central Europe".<br />

|transport=[[Hitchhiking]] in Poland is definitely easy, fast and generally accepted by almost any kind of people since there is an old and deeply rooted hitchhiking culture throughout the whole country. Poland also has some of the most active hitchhiking clubs and competitions in the world.<br />
<br />
Local urban transport is generally affordable even if it tends to become more and more expensive year after year.<br />
<br />
A [https://www.facebook.com/groups/nonstop.wdrodze/ FB group] for bus and truck drivers might be useful.<br />

|accommodation=[[Hospitality exchange]] networks work usually very well.<br />
<br />
[[Wild camping]] is mostly tolerated.<br />
<br />
There's an FB group for hospitality exchange in Poland, but it's secret and you need to first know someone who can then add you. Just ask around.<br />

|food=Not expensive not cheap. [[Dumpster diving]] works usually fairly well around supermarkets,<br />
<br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zapiekanka Zapiekanka] is a local tasty fastfood. Best ones are made in Kazimierz district in [[Krakow]]. ([https://www.facebook.com/ZapiekankinaKrakowskimKazimierzu FB group])<br />
|connectivity=Usually good wifi and often also internet cafes.<br />
|busking=Even though you will see many buskers around (mostly gipsies), especially in touristic centres of cities like [[Wroclaw]], [[Poznan]], [[Krakow]] or even [[Warsaw]]; Poland seems to be not really the best country to busk in Europe.<br />
<br />
The local currency (zloto, PLN) is not very valuable and generally people seem not to appreciate street art too much as in other neighbouring countries (e.g. like [[Czech Republic|Czech]], [[Germany]] or even [[Lithuania]] and [[Slovakia]]..(or maybe it was just [[User:FedeDC|Fede]]'s bad experience..still in 5 cities..during 2 weeks)<br />
|visa=[[Schengen]] zone.<br />
